Trail Running

My current focus is training for Marathons and long distance trails. I train regularly 3-5 times week early mornings by the beach on 20km runs and crossfit trainings. I have half a dozen 50km (marathon and trail) scheduled this year with the a ultimate goal of the Big Red Run, which is a 250km over the course of 5 days in the Australian outback desert. (yes i’m that type of crazy) i love pushing my body (and mind) to the limits. This is one of my ingredients to success.
